My Time to Be Selfish

[Verse]
I carried the weight
A world on my spine
Tried to be the hero
Every single time
But my knees gave out
Yeah
My back said no
[Chorus]
Now it’s my time
My time to be selfish
Gonna live for me
Let the world spin helpless
No cape
No mask
Just my happy fat old self
It’s my time
Oh yeah
I’m helping myself
[Verse 2]
Used to patch every crack
Mend every tear
But now I’m breathing
Just my own air
No more fixing skies
Let the rain pour free
[Prechorus]
Call me greedy
Call me wrong
But I’ve sung your song too long
[Chorus]
Now it’s my time
My time to be selfish
Gonna live for me
Let the world spin helpless
No cape
No mask
Just my happy fat old self
It’s my time
Oh yeah
I’m helping myself
[Bridge]
Got a chair by the fire
Got a pie in my lap
No guilt in my heart
No weight on the map
The mirror smiles back
Says
“Hey
You’re enough”
And I laugh
Oh I laugh
'cause I’m calling that bluff
